Table Slot Height Fix (Updated 2008/12/05) Added Pets AtomicAge dining table
LD_TableSlotHeightFix.jpg - width=540 height=350
All Maxis tables, desks and end tables have fixed slot height of 0.8. If the table mesh height is lower than 0.8, you'll end up with The Mysterious Floating Plate. Higher than 0.8, the table will eat the objects placed on it. This glitch happens mostly in poorly made custom tables, but sometimes EAxian objects suffer from it too.
For example, the mesh of BV Hotel end table is slightly higher than standard table height. If you put thin objects like bills or coupons on it, they will be eated by the table. (See the screenshot above.)
This mod adjusts the slot height of several Maxis tables, so that small objects will not bleed into the table.
You have to sell and re-buy existing tables.
List of objects fixed by this mod:
- End Table by Splendid Scenes (Table - End - Hotel)
- Blooms & Boomers End Table (Table - End - Groovy)
- "Visivue" Dining Table (Table - Dining - NightClub 1x1)
-
Beta Fomicron Dining Table (Table - Dining - AtomicAge)
Installation:
Place in your My Documents\EA Games\The Sims 2\Downloads folder.

About Me
I have my own section at MATY now. Visit DarcyLand for some more goodies that are not available in MTS2.
Check this MATY thread for AL compatibility of my hacks. All my mods are now confirmed to be compatible with AL, or updated to AL.
Recently I'm getting a lot of PMs asking how to update various custom objects like fridges or computers up to FreeTime.
I wrote a tutorial for updating custom fridges and computers to FreeTime. For other types of objects, go read this MATY thread where a lot of information is gathered. A similar thread for AL is here.
==============================================================================
Basically, you can do whatever you want with my creations, as long as they stay free. You can upload them to other free sites, include them in lots or Sims, modify them if you want.
Please make a link back to my original MTS2 threads, in case I update my past creations. If you're reuploading my mods to other sites, please keep them up to date. Check my MTS2 journal for updates of past creations..
My only 2 restrictions are:
- Do NOT upload them to PAY sites (including TSR) and Exchange.
- Don't claim them as your own.
